Definition
A synthetic steroid or androgenic compound used in medicine or research related to male hormone effects.
Etymology
Short form derived from androgenic (Greek andros, man, + genos, producing) combined with the chemical suffix -ol (indicating an alcohol compound). Part of modern pharmaceutical nomenclature.
Kelly Says
The discovery of synthetic androgens in the 1930s revolutionized medicine but also created sports doping—East German athletes were secretly given these compounds, which caused lifelong health problems they only learned about decades later.
